Bath resealing for Hangleton homes

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

How we handle bath resealing in Hangleton

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Whether it’s gaps by the taps and stained silicone, we can typically put it right.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Common questions in Hangleton

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

What areas do you cover?

All of Brighton and Hove, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Brighton and Hove and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

For anyone letting property in or around Hangleton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes around two hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Ensure the area is dry

Advice

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

  • Baths
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Wet rooms

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Do you need bath resealing in Hangleton?

In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Unsealed corners
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Leaks at the edges

Questions to ask before booking

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Who will actually do the work
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing costs very little. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
